WHO WE ARE

The Association Rifugio Digitale E.T.S. founded in 2022 as a private non-profit organization, is dedicated to organizing cultural events through artistic, educational, and creative activities, with a particular focus on digital art and photography. Registered with the National Single Registry of the Third Sector (RUNTS), the Association enjoys a range of regulatory, managerial, financial, and tax benefits, both for the organization itself and for its supporters.

Rifugio Digitale is a modern exhibition space that blends art and technology. The redevelopment project, curated by the Archea Associati studio, hosts exhibitions, events, and performances across various fields such as art, architecture, and photography, with a focus on digital realities. Equipped with 16 screens along the tunnel, it offers an interactive and dynamic experience, creating a meeting point between the arts, people, and technology, constantly evolving.

WHAT WE DO

Education and research are the fundamental pillars underlying the conception and evolution of the project. The work of the association represents a unique opportunity to inform and educate the public about the latest trends and research in the field of Digital Art, as well as guiding and supporting artists in the creation of NFTs. Through its activities, the digital gallery can contribute to raising awareness about digital issues and enriching the cultural debate at both national and international levels.

With the creation of Rifugio Digitale in Florence, a previously forgotten space is now transformed into an exhibition environment where the fusion of art and technology creates an engaging, surprising, and interactive experience, accessible to everyone for free. This 165-square-meter space is versatile, dedicated to hosting and organizing exhibitions, debates, lectures, and informal dialogues aimed at a diverse audience eager to discover a place for cultural exchange and up-to-date knowledge in the heart of Florence.

In its first year of activity, Rifugio Digitale hosted internationally renowned artists, including Fabrizio Plessi, Roberto Di Caro, Luca Locatelli, Charlotte Dumas, Franco Ionda, Matthieu Gafsou, and Piero Percoco. The exhibited works—dynamic, static, physical, and digital—established a unique dialogue with the tunnel each time, guiding viewers through an immersive journey. The uniqueness of the works blends into a narrative continuity generated by the sequence of screens, creating an immersive experience for the viewer. This characteristic of the space, with its rhythmic succession of monitors, has inspired some artists to create works specifically for this environment, such as Oro by Fabrizio Plessi and Tormento e Luce by Franco Ionda.
